1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Chronopharmacology is an important but under-explored aspect of therapeutics. Rhythmic variations in biological processes can influence drug action, including pharmacodynamic responses, due to circadian variations in the availability or functioning of drug targets. We hypothesized that global gene expression analysis can be useful in the identification of circadian-regulated genes involved in drug action. Circadian variations in gene expression in rat liver were explored using Affymetrix gene arrays. A rich time series involving animals analyzed at 18 time points within the 24-h cycle was generated. Of the more than 15,000 probe sets on these arrays, 265 exhibited oscillations with a 24-h frequency. Cluster analysis yielded five distinct circadian clusters, with approximately two thirds of the transcripts reaching maximal expression during the dark/active period of the animal. Of the 265 probe sets, 107 were identified as having potential therapeutic importance. The expression levels of clock genes were also investigated in this study. Five clock genes exhibited circadian variation in the liver, and data suggest that these genes may also be regulated by corticosteroids.
